I'm not sure what you mean. According to "gnuchess -h" there is an option -x, --xboard start in engine mode On my Fedora-23/KDE laptop, "gnuchess -x" produces exactly the same CLI output as "gnuchess". Nb I have a satisfactory but to me illogical solution - one starts knights and then specifies gnuchess as chess engine. This takes 6 seconds more than a logical command starting with gnuchess. But since it takes 30 minutes for gnuchess to defeat me, this is not significant. -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
